Critical Thinking

Avg difficulty 2.5

(a) What is the density of 235U^{235} \text{U} in u/fm3\text{u}/\text{fm}^{3}? (b) If 235U^{235} \text{U} splits into 141Ba^{141} \text{Ba} and 92Kr+3^{92} \text{Kr} + 3 neutrons, how does the density of 235U^{235} \text{U} compare with the density of each element it splits into?
